Happy Friday everyone.
I am really looking forward to this weekend because i am itching for the time to do some painting! Unfortunately i have not done much painting at all ever since the prep for my solo gallery show in September. I started back up again last night by prepping an 18x24 canvas for a new painting based of some of my most recent pen and ink drawings. So far i have the background color painted. Now i need to project one of my illustrations onto the surface, trace the outlines and begin to fill with lots of color!
...here are the pen and inks i am considering using as a basis for the new painting.
let me know if you like a certain one and think i should paint it on this prepped 18x24 canvas that i have, as i am still undecided on what to paint on it!

So, which one do you suppose i should do? Or perhaps do you have another one of my pen and ink illustrations in mind, one that i have yet to paint in acrylic color?( to find more of my pen and ink work visit here) For this painting im hoping to document the process of creation so there will be creative process pictures soon on the way!

Strangely enough, i have been super busy with doing tuns of tie-dye. Danny and i started doing the local Cedar Mill Farmers market on Saturday mornings and have been doing very well there! Each week we have to do another big batch of tie-dye to replenish our stock. The shirts and dresses are going so quick we cant even find the time to photograph them! But the season seems to be coming to an end now that autumn has descended, the rain is back and winter is not too far to follow. We are trying our best to squeeze as much farmers market days in while we can. So wish us luck for tomorrow. We will be out there slinging tie-dye rain or shine( and its predicted to rain!)

Unfortunately in the midst of everything else thats been going on, it seems that we have been neglecting our etsy shop. Have no fear, i renewed a bunch of expired listings and added some more screen print attire and art prints to the mix!
and there is more to come so stay tuned!

Many blessings,
-Chelsea Rose
